“Has he ever made any sacrifice for the country that anybody shot at him, has military arrested him? What does he know about democracy that he’s enjoying? Does he even know what democracy is?. I’m bigger than him because I’ve made more sacrifices for the country. I’ve almost been killed more than 17 times for democracy, fighting for democracy. What has he done?. The money they used to set up the bank, where did they get the money from?,” she stated.
